Metal wheels and gun barrel and metal hatches up rated gearboxes metal suspension! I bet a lot of stuff of the tamiya leopard tank would fit or could be moded to fit!

hi all

not too sure why hL did the ZTZ-99a ... the real tank has not been supplied to any other nation ? its only the chineese army that has this tank
so conversion for this tank are almost non existant .... the basic hull is that of a russian T-72 .. but that about it

i hope that HL will redo the turret .....as the t-72 then we couls all have a lot of fun with it ... mind you the hull top
would need a lot of work ...

just a bit worried about this one .. its a bit of a dead end tank ....other than hop up ... there is no other real interest in for me ?

i dont think there going to sale to many out side china ....

hi there

Retail is quoted about £100- £120 by one or two well know online retailers pss less on evilbay .. give it 6 months and you could end up buying one and getting a sencd tank for free !

looks like the only real hope of someting realy interesting this year will be form hobbens ???
